I have a pristine pair of VR5 Anniversary MK1.5 speakers in piano black for sale. There isn't a mark on them and they have been polished 2X per month with Cory Piano Polish. The only boo boo is a very small snag in the grill cloth of the right bass unit. Not a soul knows it's there except for me...and now you. If you've ever heard the VR5s you'll know that they compete with any Wilson WATT puppy you can throw at them or even the vaunted Alexia...not kidding. A Wilson dealer confirmed this. Anyway check out the pix below and see what you think. I am upgrading to the VSA VR9SE MKIIs. The first $15K gets these (new ones are over $30K now)...buyer pays shipping charges. Thanks for looking..

edit: I should explain what the MK1.5 buys you. Albert V now uses a triple wall construction on the Annies (you can visit the VSA site for details) that eliminates cabinet resonances and the MK1.5 has that. The MK1.5 also has the upgraded Audax midrange driver...the same drivers he uses in his flagship speakers.
